Ok I have updates. Its been 2 weeks and the hair on my crown is FILLING in. I have hair growing outside my braids. Not fags from the braids actual hair on the scalp around the braids I just got redone 18 days ago. I'm happy cause I thought the bleach did permanent damage to my follicles.

I took pics so you ladies can see the size of the braids and the style I wear (just a ponytail cause I'm lazy). I took pics of the hair growth so I hope you can see it clearly. Pics will be up tomorrow after church cause I'm off to bed cause church starts at 7am.
 
I would like to join.

Hey All,
I've attached my photos. One of them shows the style and size of my braids and they're done with human extensions. Another shows and up close view so you can see how much space was between my braids because the bleach left me nothing but fuzz and thin fuzz at that. The other 2 show how I now have growth in between those spaces. I've been waiting for my crown to fill in and now its begun.

If you can see the attachments I'll put them in my album in a few minutes.

Melting my mn and applying it to my scalp!!!!

@DivaJones be careful with the heat. I think I read on the original MN thread that heat makes MN ineffective.

My first check-in. I couldn't start on the 1st of May because I had to wait 1 week Post TU before starting.

I already started to feel the slight tingle.

Thank you. I know length check is important to everyone but my major concern is regrowth to my badly bleach-burnt crown. The hair growing on the scalp between the braid assures me I'm going to have the fullness and thickness I did before my tragedy.

The mixture I have now is African Pride grease (LOVE the smell) and MN. just those 2 and I apply 3 times a week and maybe a little more on my edges. I'm going to get my hair redone next week but just the first two or three rows tighten up so I'll take pics of the new growth then. That'll would make my time about a month on MN.
 
Anyone experience itching :look: I think my hair has the itchies. Its either the MN or Beemine Balanced Moisturizer.

I do occasionally but mostly tingly goodness for hours sometimes lol. When it itches I just spritz some water on.
